I mean, if my boss understands that the output of vibe coding rarely works, i'm happy to chat with the AI all day if I keep the same salary.

Until they start demanding 10x output in the same timetable

that's not vibe coding then. And AI can be used like a junior dev, you give it simple instructions and check everything it does. Using it like that can probably boost performance of already good seniors, but not by the factor 10.

NGL I'm waiting for the first lawsuit where an engineer is sued by a company by vibe coding as they were told and caused irreparable harm to the company as the whole product has to be redone from the ground up.

But the product is also redone from the ground up by vibe coding because lessons are impossible to learn and corporate is infallible.

I wouldn't mind some corps vibing themselves into bankruptcy.

Lol this is most projects for most companies I've worked for, long before AI came on the scene. Somehow these multi-year multi-million dollar disasters were never fatal.
